Here is a little tid bit of information that a lot of new sellers and International Bidders may find useful! Ebay and Paypal recently added Global Shipping services, which is fantastic for those of us who do not appreciate the long lines at the post office! What you may not realize is that Global Priority Shipping is NOT available to all countries! I recently had a purchase from Italy which does not accept Global Priority Shipping! Although I had printed my label from the Paypal shipping center it actually was not accepted by USPS for shipping. Luckily, I was able to void the label within the required about of time. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT for new sellers who wish to use this service and offer it or require it for the tracking information services and speedy delivery! Before you offer this service to your international buyers be sure to check USPS.com for a complete list of Countries where Global Priority is accepted. This way you can alert bidders of the price reduction in shipping or an extended delivery time! Be sure also to print additional copies of ALL Global Priority Labels since it only prints 3 copies where 4 (copies needed for customs clearance) are actually needed for shipping and one copy for your personal records. There are little tricks to make Global shipping easier! That may be my next posting...a guide to Global Shipping!!
